Lt. Jason Lambert will soon Brave the Shave!
He is stepping up as our community hero in the battle against childhood cancer by participating in the Clips for Cancer event for Barbara’s Friends, an organization with Golisano Children's Hospital of Southwest Florida.
In a few weeks, he will have his head shaved by a pediatric cancer patient or survivor.
This year, the hospital is adding a fun twist with a “Cops vs. Firefighters” competition to boost fundraising efforts. Our goal is for Lt. Lambert & FF Dillaha to both raise $5,000, with all funds going directly to support local children with cancer. Right now, we are in third place.
Here’s some information:
Golisano Children’s Hospital handles 526 clinic visits a month for oncology.
Currently, 90 children are undergoing active cancer treatment.
Thanks to community’s generosity, 16 children celebrated the end of their cancer treatment last year, contributing to an 84% survival rate, which is above the national average!
